The Fight

The Fight I fight with you daily Taking pill after pill Wondering if you will ever finally kill Then I realize; you already have You’ve killed my body You’ve killed my mind You’ve killed my ambitions, hopes and dreams But I keep on fighting you In hopes that you won’t kill my soul Although you are close You’ve stopped me from life You’ve stopped me from having kids You’ve stopped me from going out, Having fun You’ve even stopped me from caring… About what you ask? About my mind, my body and my life You are nothing but trouble Everyday that you strike You come out of nowhere Causing me to cry Causing me to fight Causing me to want to die Who would do such a thing? Who would cause so much pain? Who would follow me around? Destroying my life? Who would do such a thing? Endometriosis is who!
